Symantec ProxySG providing user authentication intermediary services must restrict user authentication traffic to specific authentication servers.

Description
User authentication can be used as part of the policy filtering rule sets. Some URLs or network resources can be restricted to authenticated users only. Users are prompted by the application or browser for credentials. Authentication service may be provided by the ProxySG as an intermediary for the application; however, the authentication credential must be stored in the site's directory services server. This requirement only applies to components where this is specific to the function of the device or has the concept of an organizational user (e.g., proxy capability). This does not apply to authentication for the purpose of configuring the device itself (i.e., device management). The ProxySG will not use any other authentication server that has not been explicitly configured, such as the primary and backup authentication servers.

Who does this work

7 NICE work roles and 5 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-104237r1_chk)

The ProxySG only sends user authentication traffic to explicitly configured authentication servers. Verify which authentication servers are configured. 1. Log on to the Web Management Console. 2. Browse to Configuration >> Authentication. If Symantec ProxySG providing user authentication intermediary services does not restrict user authentication traffic to specific authentication servers, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-100399r1_fix)

Configure the ProxySG for user authentication. 1. Log on to the Web Management Console. 2. Browse to Configuration >> Authentication >> Windows Domain. 3. Click "Add New Domain" and follow prompts to join the Windows Domain.
